Check 21 Services Agreement and Set Up Form (v 7.0) Completion of this form is required before a financial institution may send electronic items to a Federal Reserve Bank, receive electronic items from a Federal Reserve Bank, or send to a Reserve Bank physical items that are designated for processing under Appendix G of Federal Reserve Bank Operating Circular 3 (collectively, “Items”). The Federal Reserve Bank uses this form to obtain information that is needed to successfully complete “Check 21” product enrollment and set-up processes.

Cash Letter FormsStandardized cash letter forms are offered for your use when sending cash letters to your local Federal Reserve Bank. These forms will open in Microsoft Excel and include drop down lists with selections to help you fill out the form.

Please note: In order for these forms to function properly, macros within the Excel worksheets must be enabled. Upon opening one of the below forms, if you see an Excel Security Warning across the top of your toolbar stating that your macros have been disabled, you may need to enable the macro content that allows the form to populate correctly.

However, if you are using an older version of Excel, you may receive a warning message advising the form contains macros. To make the most effective use of the features in these forms, read the message and enable the macros if you agree. Disabling the macros will remove the interactivity from the forms and may cause them not to load properly.

Regular Savings BondsThe Regular Savings Bonds cash letter form should be used for all card style and half sheet bonds.
